50 Best Thai Restaurants near Pico Rivera

“By far one of the best Thai food spots in LA family owned since the 80s been coming to them since I was a kid. Their 7 sea soup is amazing. So glad they opened this spot in Pico Rivera. I used to go all the way to their Hollywood location. Will be coming way more than I should.“

“😃I like the way they cook all family members working real Thai Food cook by Thai people“

“Pad See Ew is delicious! 🤤 their Thai tea is great too!!!“

“The atmosphere and Sid the owner so friendly and makes you feel so welcome ...awesome food and love the Thai ice tea“

“Tastes absolutely delicious and exactly the same as it did 30 years ago! Teriyaki chicken, order the #1 and you'll be happy!“

“Tiny little place serving up food well above its weight class! Really good food! The chef even came out to personally ask us how the food was. So nice! Really interesting decor too! I'd come back with my date! But the place is tiny, so if there's no seating inside, and it's too hot or cold to eat outside, take it to go! The food is worth giving a new home in your belly!“

“Everything was great especially the food. I often order pad see ew at the places I go. It was exceptionally good. The chicken meat was excellent and I will order it that way again. Today on my second visit I’m trying the special curry with the chicken. It smells great and I’m ready to dive in. Thai tea is also good. Not overly sweet and no bite. This is my new go to Thai place.“

“First time going here. I got the Beef Drunken Noodle and the Seafood Tom Yum Soup. When I tell you both dishes had so much flavor and they give you big portions. The food was absolutely delicious and amazing. The waiters were very kind and very attentive. The place was decorated in Halloween decorations, so cute. I loved everything about this place. This will be my go to spot for Thai food from now on. I'm a very hard food critic and this place passed with flying colors. Thank you for the amazing food. I will be back.“

“I finally remembered to try this place. It didn't disappoint. Everything was made fresh to order. The veggies were crisp and tender. The shrimp were nice and plump. The Tom Yum was zesty and flaming.
It's a nice place for friends, family, or a casual date. It's not fancy. You order before you're seated.
The prices are just about the same as most Thai restaurants. Which bothered me a little since we had to stand in line to order.
But overall, it's a great place! It was yummy! It's was peaceful.“

“nice and fresh and clean 👌#1 service good customer service!“

“Stopped by on our way to the mall and this place didn’t disappoint. The Thai Mexican fusion is a little different but even though we didn’t try it the Thai dishes we ordered were excellent.
Service was good but the owner made up for it by being very attentive.

Very affordable for the portion and quality. Don’t skip this place!“

“Amazing food amazing customer service ❤️“

“After eating Thai food most of my adult life I didn't expect to be surprised by entirely new flavors. Yet somehow they served up a truly unique sauce along with my most excellent white fish. And it was a really good deal too! And the owner/server is a real people person, checking on us frequently and making sure each of the other diners in this little restaurant were satisfied with their food and service. Go there... Spend money... And enjoy a top-knotch meal served by folks who feel like family. (They also do a booming takeout business, it would appear, since delivery/pickup people came and went continually for the whole time we were there.)“

“Parking was good. Food is good for reasonable cost. Service is good. No sign on the back door so you can't tell if it's the correct place. I had yellow chicken curry. It was good tasting with good, but not perfectly cooked chicken. The curry is very watery. I used 2/3 of it, and it made my rice an unpleasant soggy consistency. Spice level is pretty spot on.“

“The food is like I am in Thailand. So delicious. The restaurant is big, clean and comfortable! The service is fantastic. They are all wonderful, especially Jenny. Highest recommendation for Tantawan! Try it, you’ll love it!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“Step into Mama Mae Ting's stall and you will be transported into an authentic Bangkok soi eatery (street stall). Somtam is fresh, crunchy and seasoned as spicy as you can handle; the BBQ chicken (gai yang) & BBQ pork (mu ping) are super savory and juicy (and conveniently served on sticks)..be sure to ask for sticky rice with that! Missed out on the kanomkrok but will save that treat for my next visit. Super arroy di mak-mak!“

“Amazing food! Nice service and friendly owner!“

“Thai food in this neighborhood have all fallen for some reason, and I thank this place for opening to pick up where they lack. I think it's great they came into a location that has very mediocre Thai restaurants around with decent ambiance but low quality food. Instead of focusing on a dine in experience, this place is all about delicious Thai take out.
The drunken pad noodles and spaghetti are great and Thai level spicy.
The pineapple fried rice is also delicious.
This is my new go to Thai spot.“

“I really like their food 😋“

“the food is cook when you order. the service is great. prices are reasonable everything is delicious 😋“

“This place is so good you know it’s fire when it’s elderly Thai mommas cooking 🧑‍🍳

Reminds you of Thailand 🥹

Note: thai food is normally on the hot end so ask for less spicy if you can’t take the heat.

Will be back thank you again!“

“They really need to update their hours, the food is awesome, but I came here on Friday at 2:25pm and the gal at the front desk said they close in 5 minutes. Their hours on google is incorrect. Very disappointing! I drove 20 minutes to get here 😕“

“Hi-nan rice is the reason I stop by there almost every chance I have on my way home. The staff are friendly and can wa irk their magic in the grill.“

“Interior chill. Order online available. They speak thai here, friendly. Got the veggie only drunken noodle went in hr before close and ordered takeout. Food ready quickly. Hard working. Price quality location everything great. Spicy is def spicy btw and i was thinking of getting the hottest level forgot authentic Thai spicy is diff from european american spicy lol. Definitely would go back. Wasnt greasy. No edamame. Portions great. Menu good. Will try pad thai nxt time and fried rice.“

“My family and i love this place. Been coming here for years. Even though it doesnt say it. They are open on sundays from 12-8:30pm except the third sunday of the month. At the risk of exposing my to go to spot. This is a hidden gem for some authentic thai. We got a big family and get the pad thai, pad see ew, pineapple curry (i always order side noodles and make it into a ramen :P ), teriyaki chicken, veg. Fried rice, chow mein, pepper garlic, and the broccoli. Never disappointed.“

“Muy rica la comida Tun servicio excelente“

“First time here. I was visiting my very good friend and he wanted to have Thai food.

We walked in around 5pm ,and the restaurant is pretty busy, at least half full.

We ordered Tom Yum Soup, Spicy Combination Fried Rice, Spicy Beef Salad, Chicken Chili Basil and Tofu and Chicken Mix Vegetables. The serving size is big enough to share. We had more than enough food for the 3 of us.

Great flavors, well prepared, high quality ingredients and you can taste the authenticity. The Beef Salad to much acidity. The Chicken Chili Basil is on the sweet side. Even the jasmine rice is good quality and taste. My only complaint is the spice level is mild even when we ordered spicy. Just add more with prik nam pla. In the end, we shared an order of the fried banana with coconut ice cream. I wish they bananas were bigger.

Service is attentive and prompt. We got our food with a little wait. Two service staff was very effective managing even when the restaurant was almost full.

Overall first time impression was great making our dining experience an enjoyable one. Solid 4 STAR 🌟.“

“Thai Chili Express is a hidden gem that truly delivers an authentic Thai dining experience. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with a warm, cozy atmosphere that feels welcoming and relaxed. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making you feel like a valued guest rather than just another customer.

The food? Absolutely amazing. Each dish bursts with authentic Thai flavors, perfectly balanced and expertly prepared. Whether you’re craving a classic Pad Thai, a rich and creamy Green Curry, or something with a bit of a spicy kick, you can taste the care and tradition in every bite. The portions are generous, and the presentation is on point, making it a feast for both the eyes and the taste buds.

If you’re a fan of Thai cuisine or just looking to try something new, Thai Chili Express is a must-visit. Their combination of delicious food, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere guarantees a dining experience you’ll want to repeat. Highly recommended! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“i had the dinner special yellow curry with pork. it has carrots and potatos in it! it also comes with rice and a salad :) cheap and filling! also if your like me and dont really like heat then get the mild option. its tolerable!“

“I am not the type of person to do many reviews but I feel this restaurant deserves one, especially, my recomendation. Tried this place with a couple of friends who are very picky when it comes to the authenticity of Asian food, especially when it comes to Thai food. Their verdict was that it's the real deal. We all enjoyed the delicious food and the awesome service. This could be our go-to place for Thai food from now on! 👍“

“Great food service and price Very clean atmosphere too!“

“This is one of my Thai mom’s favorite restaurants and is also a favorite for my relatives as well. While this is not close to the pinnacle of Thai food, I can admit that most of the dishes are decent. My family always gets the fried pork, thai fish cake and boat noodles. Their sausage is fine.“

“I walked into a small restaurant and was greeted by the owner who was very polite and accommodating, it was clean and atmosphere was welcoming. I ordered Yellow Curry w/chicken & Pad Si Ew Noodles with beef to go, I was asked to have a seat and about 12-15 mins later the food was ready to go. The yellow curry was tasty but I tend to have very high standards when it comes to curry. It was more than adequate but it could have been spicier and to be honest, I’ve had better and worse. However, the Pad Si Ew Noodle with beef was AWESOME! It was so delicious and perfectly balanced. I would definitely come back just for this dish 😋“

“I haven't been here in a while, but honestly, why have I not been here more often?!?! Well, I've made up for lost times, and came here twice recently. We ordered the same thing, but depending on the crew, some meat was more cooked, and less soft than last time. But otherwise, still pretty good. I'd still come back.
My only annoyance is being charged $4 for on extra box of rice to go. A little expensive, but I get it.“

“Good food , good place, good price 。“

“Got the pad kee mao with chicken, yellow curry, and creme brulee, all of which were great! The pad kee mao though was perfectly spicy (ordered it very hot), and not to oily like other places. Creme brulee really stood out too here. Would definitely come by here again, and recommend to others!“

“My go-to Thai restaurant in SGV! Food is authentic Thai, and great service (accommodated to different taste preferences-more sour, less spicy, etc). As a Thai, I can testify that their food has authentic flavors. We usually order Pad Seew & mango sticky rice. Their salty garlic fried shrimps are amazing also. It’s not a big place so it could get crowded during lunch and dinner times.“

“Un lugar muy limpio. Y la comida muy rica. Su personal muy amable .Es un restauran familiar.“

“Good food fast delivery friendly“

“Food was delicious and the service was awesome, our waitress was very friendly and the food was done fast. I would totally recommend this restaurant to my family and friends.“

“The Pad see eew is amazing, the Thai iced coffee is the $*** the fried rice is also amazing. Can’t go wrong with anything on that menu and the staff is very friendly“

“I like the authentic Thai foods, the friendly staff and the chill band playing on Friday night... a😎😉😁wesome experience for the entire family....“

“Best Thai food, Very good service, and clean dining place“

“Marlin Restaurant in Artesia, CA, is a family-owned treasure run by Evelyn and her mom! The carne asada tacos were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The homey environment feels warm and inviting, with vibrant decor. Friendly service and fair prices. Music was a bit loud, but it added to the vibe. Highly recommend for Mexican food fans!“

“Friday 3/28/25 Dinner at Fire Tiger Thai Food in Whittier with my friends Erwin and Victoria. Enjoying a wonderful dinner together after a hard day’s work. We ordered Shrimp pad Thai, fire tiger wings, seven sea soup, crying tiger, and mango sticky rice. The foods were so delicious and savory and a good size portion. Not salty, not too spicy, just right to taste with all the herbs and spices.

Nikki, service staff, was super nice and work diligently to serve all the customers.

The restaurant was beautifully decorated with flowers and was cleaned.

I recommend trying this restaurant.

“My coworker recommended this place after I requested Thai food lunch. The restaurant was exceptionally clean, the waitress greeted us with a smile and was very friendly. The food was delicious and had such great flavor that I wanted to order an extra meal for dinner tonight. Everything was good and the avocado rolls is now a favorite of mine. I will be having lunch there again next week.“

“Dined in with my mom and brother. Ordered the crab fried rice, Panaan, chicken bbq meal, crab Rangoon and wontons there all really delicious. Been putting this place off for a while should have came here sooner. This is a really good place to eat. The thai tea is good here to. Would definitely be coming back.“

“Good food. Authentic cuisine. Yum! 😋“

“I was blown away by the whole experience at this Thai restaurant. The service was top-notch, with staff who genuinely cared about our experience. Our meals came out hot and fast, and the presentation was beautiful. The Pad See Ew was a standout, with perfectly cooked noodles and just the right amount of soy sauce and veggies. The ambiance was serene and charming, complete with bamboo accents and soothing music playing in the background. Definitely a place to visit again!“
